Once the project is finished, the user marks it complete and it moves to the Logbook with all the to-dos it contains. Unlike projects, areas are perpetual, do not have a checkbox, and are never completed. This Evening is a separate section at the bottom of Today where the user can set aside to-dos they don’t plan to do until later in the evening.

Upcoming contains to-dos and projects that have been postponed to a specific date, as well as to-dos that are automatically generated based on repeating patterns chosen by the user. Calendar integration allows the user to see their calendar events alongside their to-dos in the Today and Upcoming lists. Reminders integration allows the user to import to-dos from Apple’s Reminders app into their Things inbox. Quick Entry is an extension on the Mac that allows the user to create to-dos while working in other apps.

Activated by a global keyboard shortcut, it invokes a small pop-up window which can automatically include links to files or websites. The new to-do is saved to Things’ inbox in the background. Shortcuts integration allows the user to automate common tasks by building shortcuts in Apple’s Shortcuts app. Repeating To-Dos are automatically generated by the app based on flexible recurrence rules, such as the last day of every month, every other Thursday, or two weeks after the last one was completed, etc. Markdown support allows the user to structure and style their notes with the popular Markdown syntax.

Widgets can be added to the Home Screen, Lock Screen, or Notification Center, allowing the user to quickly glance at a list, add new to-dos, or track their daily progress. Things URLs is a URL scheme that allows the user to construct special links for doing such things as creating to-dos or projects based on predefined values, invoking searches, or filtering lists. Quick Find allows the user to search through all their to-dos across projects, areas, and the Logbook. Logbook is where projects and to-dos are stored for future reference after they’ve been completed. Things Cloud is a sync service that stores the user’s to-dos and automatically keeps them updated across all their Apple devices. It was developed to replace the app’s original sync technology, which only worked over a local network.
